They charge you $150 per student for the worst bussing I have ever seen, the student is guilty until proven otherwise, they are more worried about busting your student than teaching them, they have a money fine for late library books, they infringe on the student's rights, and they use Comancore.
Posted by a community member on 10/26/2015My daughter transferred into BHS her sophomore year. She was welcomed by so many of the staff, who bent over backwards to help her adjust. She has been treated better here than at the local private school she had been attending since she was 4yrs. I love the teachers and admin, they are involved wit
Posted by a parent on 8/10/2014Burroughs has done really well for my students. One just started college and Burroughs has prepped him well. The Honors AP courses prepare students well for what is expected of them in college. The other non-private place in town is called Opportunities for Learning; it is just a credit mill that ha
Posted by a parent on 12/2/2012Burroughs is definitely lacking compared to other schools. Having moved from Indiana, my son was in the middle of his junior year where he was in the college prep curriculum. At Burroughs, he was relearning things he had learned at the junior high level. After 2 months, I pulled him out and transfer

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating Averagemy daughter attended Immanuels for her 2nd grade year. She enjoyed going to school each day. The children are exceptionally nice. There is NO bullying. The children get the attention they need because of the small classroom size. She excelled in every subject. We went to the public school the first week of school and due to the class size i was told they could not accommodate my daughters learning needs. Specifically, she was advanced and they couldn't guarantee she would be able to thrive in that environment due to the student/teacher ratio. I am thankful for Immanuels and the progress my daughter has made. I look forward to her attending there for her 3rd grade.Parent Review8y ago - Vieweg STEM Academy
